    True, Tito did ruin Reid, and i think it was Reid's own resilience that actually got him ruined.

    The guy took a good beating.

    Yeah but they were waaaayyyy older then when Tito fought them. Tito is million years ahead of Calzaghe

    Campos was not a great fighter
    Whitaker was way past his peak

    Vargas and Joppy are his better wins

    His win over Oscar is very questionable

    Plus he cheated with how his hands were wrapped

    Calzaghe is just as questionable he never fought anybody in their prime

    I dont consider either of them in the top 5 ATG in their weight class.

    ATG fighters usaully have a trilogy fight

    I rank PAC higher on the ATG list than either of those two fighters.

    Trinidad: Fought better opponents on a more consistent basis, dominated the WW division more emphatically than Calzaghe dominated SMW, was a three weight world champion.

    Quite simple really.

    most comparisons are paper thin when it comes to what was a better division and fighter. I just think Calzaghe had the wins and he did fight good guys. Many people on ESB seem to think that Calzaghe either beat guys who were no good or old guys like Hopkins and Jones that he was not as good, but Jones is still fighting and I bet most of us will be interested if he can beat Lacy this month. A guy who has the amount of title defenses Calzaghe has and his record is good and regardless of Tito's record, he lost to Wright and Hopkins. Had he won then you could have said he was better than Calzaghe, but at this moment you cannot say it. Calzaghe beat good fighters Eubank,Jones,Hopkins and wiped out guys like Manfredo -who not many guys do. He easily beat Lacy. And he beat Kessler. Good record and you really cannot say much bad about him.

    Tito.

    He has the better resume, and also his style and manner of victory are generally better.

    I cant vote because I really liked Vargas when i was a kid and Tito fought like a ***** when Vargas was making a valiant comeback.

    It might be a lot closer in some peoples minds if Kessler goes on to win the SMW tournament.
